If there's "math jazz" I'd like to hear some. Although I don't love a lot of the music classified as "math rock". I'm not sure what "math classical" would consist of. Some candidates (microtonalists, Nancarrow) I like, some ("New Complexity") I don't. Would Feldman qualify based on weird time signatures? Quote

I always understand "maths" in musical prefix terms to just mean "has jarring changes in time signatures". A way of saying "proggy" without also suggesting that the music might be lame.

Not being familiar with the usage, I thought things like counterpoint, retrograde, and even serialism might qualify. If we extend "maths" to "probability", even some of Xenakis's stochastic music (which I think is mathematically -at least- lame, having seen some simplistic underlying FORTRAN code). Quote

Any music with rhythm is maths jazz (counting). The only non-maths jazz form of music so far discovered is unaccompanied Tuvan Throat Singing. Quote
